Chapter 1927 Yang Bo's pride
The Bingbu Yamen is located behind the Zongrenfu Yamen, but the area where the laneway connects already belongs to East Chang'an Street.
Chen Hong stood in the main hall, holding a bright yellow imperial edict and read loudly: "... Loyal, upright, responsible, talented and capable, he is very popular with me. I have been specially transferred to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. I appreciate this!"
"I accept the decree, long live my emperor!"
Yang Bo's eyes were shining with excitement. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and bowed respectfully.
Behind him, all the officials from the Ministry of War knelt down and worshiped Yang Bo. As officials from the Yang family, they were naturally overjoyed, but the officials who had always been rejected were already curious about the new Minister of War.
Chen Hong solemnly handed the imperial edict to Gao Gong and congratulated him with a smile on his face: "Master Gao, congratulations on your promotion!"
From the Minister of the Ministry of War to the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, although they are all six ministers, their status and status are not the same. The influence of the Minister of the Ministry of War is limited to the military and political system, but the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel has influence over the entire official system, and can even directly follow the leader.
assist in counterbalance.
"Eunuch Chen, please come inside and have some tea!"
Yang Bo reached out and took the bright yellow imperial edict. He also intended to build a good relationship with Chen Hong, the eunuch Bingbi, the eunuch and the admiral of the East Factory, and he warmly invited him.
Facing Yang Bo's kindness, Chen Hong shook his head gently and said, "No, the Za family has to make another trip to say goodbye!"
Huh?
When Yang Bo heard this, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and then he felt relieved.
He, the Minister of the Ministry of War, has been promoted to the throne of the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, so naturally the Minister of the Ministry of War will have to find someone else, but I don’t know who will come to take his place?
When he considered this issue, a hint of joking appeared on his face.
It would be better if the new Minister of the Ministry of War is one of our own, but if it is someone who does not deal with me, with the fact that I have been running the Ministry of War for so many years, and that I have already worshiped the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, that person will still be framed even if he sits in this position.
Roast on the fire.
This is not numb self-confidence. With his many years of management of the Ministry of War and his power as Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, anyone who comes will have to look at Yang Bo's face obediently.
"Congratulations, Master Zhengtang, on your promotion!"
All officials from the Ministry of War came forward to congratulate him, already wanting to curry favor with this powerful old boss.
Although Yang Bo has been promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he has no intention of giving up the Ministry of War. He just said to the officials in front of him: "Haha... I am hosting the Chunfeng Tower tonight. You will not come home until you are drunk!"
As an official in Yang Bo's system, when he heard this, he naturally nodded happily and agreed.
The news that Yang Bo was appointed Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs quickly spread throughout the streets and alleys of the capital, and naturally also reached the lobby of the United Restaurant.
"Haha... I have long said that the Minister of Civil Affairs must belong to Duke Yang!"
"The most prodigy of the Ming Dynasty is undoubtedly Yang Bo. What is a three-step calculation is just a joke!"
"Some people even speculated that the new Minister of Civil Affairs is Lin Ruoyu. This is completely out of the blue. How can we not say that he will join the cabinet?"
…
There were merchants from all over the world gathered here, among which the Shanxi merchants had the loudest voice. When they learned that Yang Bo was aspired to the title of Tianguan, while they continued to praise Yang Bo, they also did not forget to ridicule Lin Haoran.
Wang Zhideng and Sun Jixiang, who were sitting at the dining table in the corner, exchanged silent glances, with a flash of disappointment in their eyes, realizing that plans could never keep up with changes.
Although they had tried their best, they still could not prevent Yang Bo from becoming the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. Although Yang Bo would not be as obsequious as Hu Song was to Xu Jie, he had already hugged Xu Jie's thigh tightly. Naturally,
He also vented his anger through the same nostril as Xu Jie.
After such a turmoil in the court, Xu Party's overall strength has not been effectively weakened, and their situation is still at a disadvantage.
"Don't be so proud! Now, although Yang Bo has been appointed as the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, news has just come from the palace that the emperor does not agree with the appointment of Gao Gong, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, as the Minister of the Ministry of War!"
A discordant voice came from a dining table in the southeast corner of the restaurant.
Fan Qianshan was drinking proudly when he turned around and saw a Guangdong businessman giving him a hard time, so he teased: "Even if Gao Shilang doesn't take over as Minister of War, it's not Lin Ruoyu's turn!"
The non-compliance between regions has a long history. It exists not only between provinces, but also between north and south. This is even more obvious in the officialdom.
"Other than Mr. Fan, I would like to ask who in the current court is qualified enough to take over the position of Minister of the Ministry of War?" The Guangdong businessman knew Fan Qianshan, but he asked calmly.
As soon as these words came out, the entire hall suddenly became quiet, and many people were thinking seriously.
Although it is said that Yang Bo was the most talented military official in the Ming Dynasty, he actually had no outstanding military exploits at all. On the contrary, Lin Haoran had shown military talents as early as Leizhou.
Not long ago, Lin Haoran even asked the emperor to leave the court and serve as governor of Jiubian. At that time, the emperor intended to let Lin Haoran serve as Minister of War.
If we are looking for a new Minister of War, then Lin Haoran is undoubtedly a very competitive candidate, and even an ideal candidate for Minister of War.
Fan Qianshan was slightly stunned at first, and then found out that Bao Xiangxian, the left minister of the Ministry of War, had been impeached for military supplies. Finally, he responded calmly: "According to historical practice, although the left minister of the Ministry of War has been vacant, it can be replaced by the minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing.
Li Sui takes over!"
"Have you forgotten? When there was another mutiny in Zhenwu Camp last year, Li Sui, the Minister of War in Nanjing, tried to appease the rebels with 300,000 silver rewards. Fortunately, Lin Pingping, the imperial envoy, broke into the camp alone! If Li Sui had been appointed as the War Department
Minister, even though I am a businessman, I will never agree with this person harming the country and the people!" The Guangdong businessman said with a righteous tone.
When the merchants and scholars around him heard this, they all nodded.
This Li Suizan had nearly 100,000 Nanjing soldiers, but when faced with the uproar of 3,000 Zhenwu Camps, he actually chose to solve the problem by giving him silver. Not to mention that the imperial court should have dismissed this man from his post, how could he be allowed to do so?
What about being appointed Minister of War?
"Yes, Li Sui took over as Minister of War, and we will submit a petition!"
"In that case, I think it is most appropriate for Lin Shangshu to take over as the Minister of War!"
"Yes, although the world calls Yang Bo the most handsome man, what are his military achievements?"
…
A group of scholars were not afraid of Yang Bo's power, but they hated idiots like Li Sui, but they expressed their honest opinions one after another.
Wang Zhideng and Sun Jixiang exchanged silent glances, but there was a hint of hope in their eyes.
Although Lin Haoran did not rise in his position at the Ministry of War, his influence must have been amplified. In particular, he had military talents. Once he made further achievements in the military, he would have great influence among civilian officials and military generals.
Of course, there is no promotion at all from the Ministry of Household Affairs to the Ministry of War, and there is even a sense of decline. There are also some disadvantages in this matter.
